The two competitors from Bangladesh – Tanjim Tabassum Islam in Patisserie & Confectionery and Nafisa Sadaf Anchol in Fashion Technology have performed very well and earned appreciation from the organisers and assessors.
They successfully completed all the stages and made outstanding and better performances compared to the competitors from many countries, said Md. Faruque Hossain, Executive Chairman of the National Skills Development Authority (NSDA) under Prime Minister’s Office (PMO).
Besides, two of the Bangladeshi experts – Shaheen Afroz in Patisserie and Confectionery and Ms Afsana Ferdousi in Fashion Technology have been selected as judges and assessors.
Bangladesh’s participation at the World Skills Competition in Kazan, Russian Federation is a historic event. After founding National Skills Development Authority (NSDA), Prime Minister Sheikh Hasina has personally encouraged the Bangladesh delegation to take an active part in the competition. This symbolises her strong political will to take skills development issues to a higher level in line with her commitment to create greater opportunities for the youth population in the country, Md. Nojibur Rahman, Principal Secretary of the Prime Minister shared.
Bangladesh has also become the second country from South Asia along with India to be part of the vibrant forum in Kazan where the two competitors have attracted huge attention from the visitors.
Senior officials of PMO and NSDA attended policy level exchanges as well as constructively engaging with leaders from Worldskills International & other member countries while the private sector leaders were engaged in networking and identification of skills areas where Bangladesh will have both competitive and comparative advantages not only in the future competitions but also in global markets.
Russian media also highlighted Bangladesh’s participation at Kazan WSC. The participation of Bangladesh delegation at the WSC has opened up a new horizon of opportunities in the days ahead.
“Our plan is now to organise a country-wide skill competition under NSDA and it’s partners to identify talents and prepare for future competitions and global markets. The government announcement to make technical and vocational education compulsory from school level from 2021 will take us to a new height,” he added.
“We are all grateful to Prime Minister Sheikh Hasina for her continued visionary leadership to provide skills training to our young population. The next WSCs in Shanghai, China in 2021 and Lyon, France in 2023 will hold out more opportunities for Bangladesh youth population as we all are inspired to ensure greater participation there,” expected NSDA chief.
